Essandoh To Play For Northen Ireland

Northern Ireland boss Lawrie Sanchez is poised to call-up non-league striker Roy Essandoh to face Austria.

Roy Essandoh, whose father still lives in Ghana, once expressed his desire to play for Ghana. The Gravesend forward is famous for scoring the winning goal for Sanchez's Wycombe when they dumped Leicester City out of the FA Cup in 2001.

Essandoh is one of three players on standby after the raft of injuries suffered by Sanchez.
